Ok, before I start here's a little back-ground. This is set before Twilight, but Kate was still kidnapped by Ari. Grissom and Gibbs have known each other for 5 years, since Grissom did a seminar at Quantico, which Gibbs and his team attended.

This is un-betaed so all mistakes are mine. I'm not an American, so some of the geographical aspects of this fic might not be totally accurate, so excuse me for that.

I think that's about it. This is my first cross-over fic, and only the second fic i've posted, so please be nice, but i do encourage constructive critisism.

Chapter One: The Phone Call

Grissom and his team had just closed a quadruple homicide with two of the victims under the age of five. It hit the team hard, and they were all mentally and physically exhausted. Grissom heads to his office and sinks into his chair. He's just about to settle down with a good entomology book, when he has an idea. He picks up his phone and dials the familiar number. Someone answers on the second ring.

"Gibbs," the person says.

"Jethro, its Gil. How's your team doing?" Grissom replies.

"Gil! Nice to hear from you! My team's doing ok. How's yours?"

"Not bad. Just closed a tough one. Quadruple, with two kids under 5."

"That's rough." Jethro replies.

"Yeah. They need a break. Are your team still going on that boat trip down here tomorrow?

"Yeah. Why, you wanna join us?"

"If you and your team don't mind, I think it'll do them some good."

"Sure, the more the merrier. Just one thing – how many women will be coming?"

"Erm… just two – Catherine and Sara. Why?"

"No reason, I'll just have to keep an eye on someone…"

"Let me guess…"

"DiNozzo!" They say simultaneously. They laugh, say their goodbyes, and hang up. Grissom goes to tell the rest of his team.

He finds them all in the break room chilling and talking. Greg is the first one to notice him. "What you got for us, boss?" he asks.

"How would you all like to go on a boat trip tomorrow?" Grissom replies. At first the team is little surprised and confused. After a minute or so Warrick speaks up.

"That sounds great, Griss but don't we have to work?" he asks.

"Day and swing shift will cover all the small cases, but we will be on call if anything comes in that they can't handle."

"You serious, Grissom?" Catherine asks who's still a bit shocked.

"Yeah. A friend of mine's taking his team on a boat trip at Lake Mead and, since you guys look like you could use a break, I asked if we could join them. So unless you guys have other plans…"

"We're in!" they all chorus together.

"Good. Go home, get some rest and pack. We'll meet back here tomorrow at 6am, ok?"

"Gotcha boss," they reply. They all rush out of the break room to go pack. However, Catherine hangs back. "Grissom?" she asks hesitantly.

"Don't worry, Cath, Lindsay can come if she wants," he says.

"I don't think she would want too." Cath says. "But, my nanny's out sick…"

"I can arrange for someone to watch her." Gil says encouragingly.

"Thanks, Gil." She gives him a small kiss on the cheek and heads out. Grissom watches her go, and then heads back to his office to make a few calls.
